Tsuchihara looked at the cowshed on the side of Nagano Metropolitan Junior High School with an ugly face.

At this time, he was hesitant in his heart.

Two outs, someone on second base!

In terms of the situation alone, this is definitely not a situation where you have to fight to the death with the beater, let alone the beater is still the four sticks of Akagi Middle School.

Today is different from the past, and the current Akagi Middle School and Sawamura are not the same as last summer's Akagi and Sawamura. Last year, Nagano Metropolitan said that he would not choose to escort Sawamura, as one of the three kings of Nagano Prefecture, they really couldn't afford to lose that person.

But now it's different, once the situation is unfavorable, Tsuchihara's first thought is to escort Sawamura.

When there are people on second base, it is really dangerous to PK with a four-stick like Sawamura. Especially in such a stalemate pitcher battle, you have to be extremely careful with every point.

Fengxiang Long Yi nodded, touched his shoulder, and then patted the hat on his head three times.

Tsuchihara understood and gave Mari a code.

As mentioned earlier, before the competition, Nagano Metropolitan Junior High School carefully studied Sawamura. The study is not limited to Sawamura's pitching, but also his swing strikes.

Regarding Sawamura's striking method of using a short stick first, and then retracting it and swinging the stick, Fengxiang Long Yi also has his own understanding.

In Fengxiang Long Yi's view, the reason why the success rate of Sawamura's strike is so high is nothing more than two.

One of them is that this striking stance makes Sawamura particularly comfortable. It sounds a bit mysterious, but it's just the way it is. In professional baseball, there are many hitters who have their most familiar striking positions, some of which look orthodox and some of which look weird. It is not only limited to the striking posture, but also the hitting performance of the hitter depending on the number of balls and the situation.

Some hitters play particularly well with two good balls and one bad ball, and even many hitters play particularly well with runners.

Major baseball's batting statistics aren't just about hitting base, it's not just about batting average. It even includes what situation and how did you behave?

This includes the number of balls you have and the number of people on base.

Even professional baseball players themselves don't necessarily know these things very well. But those scouts with sharp eyes have clear statistics.

Feng Xiang Long Yi did not equate Sawamura with the height of a professional player, he just thought that Sawamura's striking posture could also be explained by this theory. Such a striking stance should make Sawamura very comfortable, so his batting average can be so high.

In addition to this reason, there is another reason. This reason is more childish to say, but in the middle school students' competition, such naivety has some unexpected effects.

When Sawamura plays a short shot, his bat stays on the top of the good ball belt. At this time, the pitcher will generally give up throwing to the top half of the good ball belt.

If you really want to say anything, there is no reason at all, it is just that the pitcher will feel extremely awkward when the ball is thrown in the direction of the bat. To put it bluntly, this is actually a psychological suggestion.

On the one hand, he blocked the opponent's ball path, and on the other hand, he was the most comfortable hitting position, which created Sawamura's high hit success rate.

With such speculation, in response to Sawamura's 'short fight' posture, Fengxiang Long Yi also developed a set of countermeasures. This is also naïve, but it may have an unexpected effect.

Since Sawamura blocked the good ball belt in the upper half, he deliberately targeted the ball path above. And he's not targeting the good ball belt, but the top of the good ball belt!

I don't know how you can play a good bad ball above the belt?

On the court, in the face of a sudden flying high ball, after Sawamura withdrew his bat, he failed to swing the bat smoothly, and his movements seemed to freeze.

"Bad ball!"

The ball landed straight into Tsuchihara's glove.

Even though it was a bad ball, the brothers of the 'Red Brotherhood' were silent.

Having seen countless legends of Sawamura, they still thought that after Sawamura put on a short bat, he would definitely be able to hit a hit? Unexpectedly, Sawamura didn't even have the ability to swing a stick.

In the cowshed of Nagano Metropolitan Junior High School.

Fengxiang Long Yi held his chin and snorted coldly in his heart: "The same is the four bad, the four bad of attack and the four bad of Jingyuan are also different." At the very least, it doesn't degrade the pitcher's momentum. I wonder what Akagi will rely on to score after the fourth stick of Akagi Middle School is cut? ”

Akagi Junior High School is a team formed with Sawamura as the core of offense and defense, and when defending, it goes without saying that as a pitcher, Sawamura can dominate everything. But when it comes to offense, it's not necessarily.

If you want to perform, your opponent has to give you a chance to perform.

I'm going to escort you!

Nagano Metropolitan High School almost blatantly told Sawamura that, but at the same time they used offensive pitching. Mari himself also has a reputation for unstable ball control, and even if the four bad escorts Sawamura, the audience will not say anything.

In the strike zone, of course, Sawamura also knew Nagano Tsuritsu's plans, he turned his head to look at the direction of Nagano Tsutari's cowshed behind him, and his eyes were fixed on the handsome middle-aged man.

Fengxiang Long Yi!

"There really is, but you seem to be mistaken about one thing."

The corners of Sawamura's mouth brought out a bit of an inexplicable smile.

You must know that in the past, when Sawa Village was in the major leagues, the success rate of first using short hits to cheat hits was as high as 70%, and this data stood in the records of the major leagues like a legend.

In response to such legends, some brick beasts will certainly not let go of research. It's like studying Michael Jordan's muscle makeup.

The information in their hands is much more than Feng Xiang Long Yi knows.

The results of the study show that Sawamura belongs to the genius of geniuses, and although his dynamic vision is not at the level of a bug, his eyesight is very good, and he can see the trajectory of the change ball. The body is soft and can play well in any position of the ball belt.

For Sawamura, there is no way he is not good at playing.

Of course, Sawamura's blow is not without any weaknesses. It can even be said that Sawamura's weaknesses are as great as his strengths. This weakness is in his soft body.

Because Sawamura has a soft body, he doesn't have BUG-level dynamic vision. So when he swings the bat with all his might, it's easy to see the ball, but he can't hit it. This is also the reason why Sawamura was often struck by when he was in high school.

In order to solve this problem, his high school coach and professional baseball coach thought of many ways, and in the end he could only get him to fix his striking position. After the striking stance was fixed, Sawamura's hit success rate suddenly increased a lot.

But even then, his hit success rate in fixed positions is only in the early 20s. That was until he started to fix his swing stance with short hits, which further compressed the space for Sawamura's body to swing.

Since then, Sawamura has officially advanced to the big league and has become one of the most well-known hitters in the major leagues!
